Chasing Moments.

So I've been pretty much sitting here the last three to four hours going through my itunes library and looking for random videos on youtube.

Earlier today I met, or I should re met someone. They didn't really remember me, but I really wasn't expecting them to as I never really had much interaction with them to being with. I was in high school, and they were busy raising kids. Something he said really struck me though. I can't repeat it verbatim, but the sentiment was those years raising kids was a complete blur.

It got me thinking that maybe this so called rat race we're in will just be a blur years from now.

I think the reason I've been resisting the obvious importance of going to sleep right now is because I want to enjoy some moments or things I might has missed. I literally have been sourcing through two decades of music remembering various points in time when I first heard these songs and what kind of impact, large or small they had on my life.

I'm not expecting to recapture a moment or anything, but sometimes I'm afraid when I look back I will feel like I missed something important. Something I should have learned.
